Re: [MEXT] New Text for home link detection in RFC3775bis



Title: RE: [MEXT] New Text for home link detection in RFC3775bis

Hi all,

I hope that the following can hepl:

 If the MN has no configuration then A otherwise B.

A: Bootstrap

o The MN has neither IP address, nor the HA IP address, nor home IP prefix,

o The MN connects to a network, obtains a link IP prefix and acquires or forms an IP address (MN@)

o The MN discovers the HA IP address and its home IP prefixes

o The MN compares the prefix of its IP address (MN@) with the home IP prefixes

B. Handover

o The MN has a HoA, the HA IP address and its home IP prefixes

o The MN connects to the network and obtains a link IP prefix

o The MN compares the link IP prefix with the HoA IP prefix

o Note that when the mobile node connects on a new visited network it may need to discover the HA of this network if available. The mobile node may have to use this HA for next IP sessions.

Sincerly,

Kassi

Hi Fan,
   Sounds like a good idea.
